Demanding the Office québécois de la langue française drop the $3,000 fine against the Miller family for writing 'Toronto' in English.

Completely ludicrous, it says Toronto on a box. It's a name and on a box... It doesn't matter, in any stretch of the imagination unless your a complete self centred idiot.

This is just a little bit out of hand. How many people does Laplante believe this will affect? Any reasonable person grounded in reality would realize that maybe a couple hundred people out of an entire city may see the word 'Toronto' written on a moving box! What an outrageous way to enforce a petty law.

I am French and that is why I live on the Ontario side. Quebec and their stupid rules everything must be French because it's in public view. News flash this is canada it is a free country - Why must Quebecois be morons?
